I’m working with only hand tools at the moment and also interested in the green wood work, with axes and such, and restoration of hand tools. I have the book Wood by Eric Meier, which is great so far for wood properties and identification.
Are there any other books that you guys can recommend? Ones especially for green wood work, hand tool restoration, or hand tool identification and usage would be fantastic. There are many good videos and books out there, but sorting through which ones to try can take some time.
Any of Paul Sellers books: https://paulsellers.com/paul-sellers-books/
Essential woodworking hand tools is a super thorough look at hand tools, their uses, sharpening and care etc. Sounds like it’s what you’re looking for.
P.s. his YouTube videos are amazing, he pretty much got me into hand tool woodworking by himself.
